We're On the Move...

It looks like we will be moving into our own house sometime in February. Yes, we are finally going to become responsible home owners. Brad is not so in love with the exterior, in fact, he thinks it is hideous but it is nothing that siding cannot take care of at some point. The house was built in 1971 and had one owner other than the people who are selling it now and they bought it just to upgrade an resell. The kitchen and bathrooms upstairs have been totally redone. Also, the downstairs, which was previously just framed out has been finished so we have plenty of room for Emma to run around and for anybody who wants to come visit. Our two biggest problems will be keeping Emma off the stairs (gotta love those baby gates)and keeping her out of the wine cabinet. She loved opening and closing it both times we looked at the place. Here are a few photos that Brad took the other day.

Congratulations! How exciting. Sorry I am not available for this move. I do have a friend with a truck...

Does this mean Emma is getting a cat or dog to help her adjust to new surroundings?

Congrats, Laura and Brad! So glad to see you found a great house (and I am cracking up that Brad has already refused pets). The house looks really cute, and we will look forward to getting out there to see it once you get settled. Sorry I have been so out of touch. I'll email soon!
